US International Trade Administration

The US have launched a new virtual matchmaking service for like-minded companies to form consortiums for bidding related to Bishoftu International Airport which might be of interest to UK companies. More information can be found here:

Please note:
- The virtual tool is free for UK businesses although there will still be an automatic email asking to go to payment once the application is approved (even though there is no payment to make)
- The website being used is a commercial entity so businesses should only include information they are comfortable having in the public domain (although various data protection provisions should apply).
Further practical guides on how to use the online tool can be found in the following pdfs:
